Ce volume réunit les cinq communications présentées dans le cadre des Conférences d'études iraniennes Ehsan et Latifeh Yarshater , organiséesen 2014 par l'Unité Mixte de Recherche 7528 Mondes iranien et indien auCollège de France à Paris. L'auteur propose un état de la questionrelative à la culture architecturale et figurative de l'Iran sassanide, sur la base d'une nouvelle évaluation globale des différents témoignagesarchitecturaux et artistiques connus et à la lumière des récentesdécouvertes publiées en Iran au cours des dernières années. Leur objectif, loin de prétendre à l'exhaustivité, est de permettre une meilleurecompréhension de l'utilisation des espaces bâtis, des formes d'expressionet de communication visuelle et des mécanismes de la productionartisanale. Deux chapitres sont dédiés à l'architecture, domaine danslequel nous sommes encore loin d'avoir atteint un consensus généralisé; unchapitre est consacré à une production artistique fortement liée à l'architecture, celle des stucs. Les deux autres s'attachent à l'approfondissement des aspects technico-stylistiques de types deproductions étudiés jusqu'ici majoritairement du point de vue del'iconographie, ceux des reliefs rupestres et des sceaux.
Thisvolume contains the text of the five Ehsan and Latifeh YarshaterDistinguished Lectures on Iranian Studies, organized by the Unité Mixtede Recherche 7528 Mondes iranien et indien, and delivered at the Collègede France in Paris. The aim of this book is to take stock of thearchitectural and figurative culture of Sasanian Iran on the basis of anew comprehensive evaluation of the varied range of architectural andartistic evidence known to us, and in the light of the recent discoveriespublished in Iran over the last few years. Without any pretence of beingexhaustive, the idea is to bring more light to bear on the utilisation ofbuilt-up areas, forms of expression and visual communication, and themechanisms involved in artisanal production. Two chapters are dedicated tothe architecture, a field in which we are far from having arrived at ageneral consensus, while another chapter deals with a category of artisticproduction closely linked to the architecture, namely stucco work. Theother two chapters look into the technical-stylistic aspects of types ofproduction so far studied mainly from the iconographic point of view: therock reliefs and the seals.
